Re: Scuba tank setup for air pistol cylinder refills
Have you ever checked SCBA tanks?

It does not equipped with regulator, but ...

Re: Got my Walther LP500 - but there's a catch
I would suggest you to measure the weight of the Aluminum cylinder. If it is heavier than 160 grams, which is the carbon cylinder's nominal weight, and you prefer lighter gun, you may have to remove the barrel shroud to achieve the original EXPERT's total gun weight, which is 920-930(with a 10-gram ...

Re: Pistol Hold and Grip Fitting
Chris, I thought you are an old hand at action shooting and a beginner in 10m AP. But, I realized after reading your second post that you had spent some time finding your best piece and posture. Getting used to a new posture takes time and practices. If you have spent decent time and practices until...

Re: Pistol Hold and Grip Fitting
A primary option is to try and get use to holding the pistol with the barrel, hand, forearm, upper arm and the eye lined straight. But, it requires you a hard physical effort. Have you ever seen Korostylov, UKR. e.g., in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gwrh8TigM3A time=26:10 ? You will realize that ...

My 60 year old eyes would love to have a "1 2 1" sight picture because now I have too slim gaps of light on either side of my front post. I currently am not using the widest (4mm) post in my possession as it allows barely any light. I have 2 of the exact same rear sight blades and my mach...

Re: Air pistols used at the Olympics?
Looking at footage of the 10m AP finals, individual and mixed, it seems that the most popular air pistol by far is the e-trigger Steyr EVO10. Used by about 95% of the competitors, I think. I do not think so but looks to me like; gold: Foroughi(IRI) Styer silver: Mikec(SBR) Walther bronze: Wei(CHN) ...

The Indian team seems to have maintenance problems at the worst times. See above at 6:00
I hope Mr Pavel Smirnov is carrying an hex wrench set in his pocket this time, in Tokyo.

Re: Gaps between 1 & 2 - Manu's Morini circuit malfunction
so it is because of humidity? what should have they done to avoid this? I do not have enough info at this moment. I cannot say that the humidity is the cause of the problem. Morini's circuit board is completely enclosed by the grip. This environment for the circuit board is quite brutal in high-hum...

Re: OLYMPIC GAMES TOKYO, JAPAN 24 JUL – 3 AUG 2021 - shooting schedule
Also, I guess it's a good idea to spray the circuit board with some conformal coating. The circuit board in a CM162EI I used to have twenty years ago for four years had been conformal-coated except for the power switch, connectors, an electrolytic capacitor and contacts for batteries. It is obvious...

So, contrary to the subject line, it had nothing to do with the circuitry. Another possible speculation would be "She pulled the trigger, but the air was not detonated. She thought that she had not turn the lever all the way and she repeated it with more force than before ... She repeated this...

Re: Gaps between 1 & 2 - Manu's Morini circuit malfunction
For men, the gap between 1 & 2 is so large that a jet plane can go through it. 6.9 points. I do not think this sort of "gap" happened in earlier Olympic[s]. That is owing to people shooting 8s, and high 8s. And that probably thanks to Covid. Now what is worse is this: https://sports.n...
